Just watched the first 7 episodes today, and I really love it. I'm not used to the animation style, but right off the bat, I could see how well it fits. And that OP. The first black-and-white segment in there is probably the best animation sequence I've ever seen. And Wenge is probably my favorite, too. The scene when he gets the care package, and remembers leaving his mother, and then being back in the apartment with all that stuff, it just really shows loneliness really well. Plus the scenes with his mom and his team are the most adorable

BlueFlowerRedSky posted:Oh yeah, I'm a big fan of his. I never got into Kemonozume for whatever reason, but I've enjoyed Kaiba, Tatami Galaxy, Mind Game, and some of the short films he's worked on. (Looking at his Wikipedia article, it seems that he also did some animation for Welcome to the Space Show? That was a weird movie: the animation is nice (if slightly derivative of Ghibli), the alien and world designs are interesting, it starts out as a solid children's science-fantasy with relatable themes and characters in a range of age groups -- but everything just breaks down at the third act.) If I'm following Ping Pong and really enjoying Tatami Galaxy, where should I go next in devouring Yuasa's work? I'm so excited for the finale episode.
